Tis Irish You Are Today

Tis Irish You Are Today

Let me be the first to say
Tis  Irish you are today
No matter your background
Your forefather’s way
Tis Irish you are today

And as Irish you are entitled
A toast – so come what may
St. Paddy sure will bless thee
For tis Irish you are today

May your mountains all be hillsides
May your storms be gentle rain
May your days be filled with sunshine
Until we meet again

No matter what this day might bring you
You will surely be OK
For you’ll have the luck of the Irish
Tis Irish you are today

Another great St Patrick's Day write from you. I love the smooth flow of this piece and I especially like the 3rd stanza. Wonderful. Love, KIm
